WINDERMERE, Fla.

So moved by the seductive texture and flavors, he was inspired to create Pasta Chips, the innovative and unique snack quickly winning over major grocery and club stores across the United States. Taste this new snack in its East Coast debut at the NACS Show held October 7-10 in Las Vegas, Nevada in booth 577.
